Overview

VBC's Fantasy Ballet Camps are designed to capture the creative spirit of our younger dancers. The ballet-themed summer camps allow students ages 3-9 to explore movement in ballet and creativity with themed craft projects, dance games, mini classes, and exposure to the music of classical composers. Each session is structured to provide alternating movement and quiet activities and is unique in the theme and activities presented.
